    I recently purchased a 2008 GXP, and am concerned about a few things.

    First, the speedometer is always showing almost 10mph higher then the HUD is. Is this normal to some extent? I honestly can't tell which is correct, almost seems that the slower speed(HUD) is more accurate, judging from other traffic.

    Second, my cigarette lighter(for my radar, not smoking) does not work, neither of them do. Nor does the HUD control switch near the gear shift, or the traction control button. Since this stuff is all in the same area, I would assume it's just a fuse. But I don't see a fuse that has that stuff on it, everything else in the vehicle works fine, any thoughts on what else it could be, or if I'm overlooking a fuse somewhere?

    Thanks!

    ^^^^ I agree! For being that new of a vehicle, and not to mention a top of the line vehicle..... it should have a warranty. but your HUD is a digital readout of what is being sent to the PCM.... it is more accurate.
